Get Involved - Organizations/NGOs

WIVP is always looking for organizations with whom we might work on future projects. WIVP looks to work with smaller charitable organizations and NGOs in developing countries with limited resources, and looks to design projects that will allow these organizations to derive maximum benefit from our volunteers' business skills and experience. If you are part of or know of an organization that would fit with the WIVP mission, please contact our Vice Presidents of Project Scoping:

Get Involved - Students

Membership in WIVP is only open to current Wharton MBA students who are dues paying members of record to the WGA. During September, WIVP accepts student applications for positions on one of the WIVP club committees. Committee members will have specific club administration responsibilities over the course of the academic year, and are given first priority in project allocation. For application information, please contact Anusha Seetharaman or Pratish Halady.

Non-committee members may participate in projects by adding their name to a waitlist. Waitlist members will be allocated to projects only after committee members are assigned. To add your name to the waitlist, please send an email to Jonathan Ojany or Raj Beri.
